The youngest of six children, she was born in Dunmore and was the daughter of John and Rosalea Domjeno (Saliay) Kish.

She married Lewis C. Eggert Jr. on Oct. 4, 1936, and they made their home in Newfoundland.

She worked at various establishments, including Horn of Plenty and Blueberry Hill, and worked numerous cleaning jobs. Her biggest job was wife and mother of three daughters, including identical twins. Life was always busy with the kids and grandkids until retirement, when she and Lou discovered Maine, where they spent many summers. In 1997, she moved to Santa Barbara, Calif., living close to her youngest daughter and her family.

Sharing so little of Grandma's very large life in this obituary can never sum up all that she was, all that she did, saw and gave to her family and others. We will all miss her in so many ways and are grateful to have had her in our lives.

She was predeceased by her husband of 56 years, Lewis C. Eggert Jr., and her daughter Diane Kandris (Nick) of East Stroudsburg.
